Fiorentina forward Kevin-Prince Boateng has given an insight into his unbelievable spending during his time with Tottenham Hotspur, revealing he often embarked on huge shopping sprees simply because he had the money to do so.
When he joined Spurs back in 2007, Boateng was praised for his natural talent, but his off-the-field antics ended up dominating headlines. Often criticised for a lack of professionalism, Boateng ended up leaving Spurs just two years later, before bouncing around Europe with a whole host of sides.
Now 32 years old, Boateng has often spoken of his regret towards his old behaviour, and he recently told La Repubblica (via Football Italia) that he often chose to flex his financial muscle to make him feel happy.
